All the maritime Residencies enjoy perfect tranquil lily, and iu the interior theie have been some partial engagements of little consequence, all - to the volt/outage of our troops. The Comina 4 ler of the third Grand Di vkion, aud the Reside'''. of Socrabaya, without waiting for an attack front the Regent of Lrjocjocaria, have began ope. raiions in Iliac OWil 'territory. At first he seemed, disposed to make an obstinate resistance, but retreated after 'having hod some men killed and nounded. Our troops inmiediately took posses siou of tilt!

The alarm excited by this circumstance may perhaps bey in some degree lesseeed by the contents of initiate letter, written by at Greek high in office to a merchant here, from which we are allowed to CollllllUniCale the following extract : " The Greek ships of war always respect the flag of European' nations ; but therwere piratical vessels, the, commanders and crews of which are malefactors and exiles from the. lonian Islands, Dalmatia, Ragusa, and Italy. These respect no European, nor even the Greek flag, for they are no thing but pirates.—At - the beginning the Greek ships of war were able to put them down; but now that they are nil engaged in the great contest with the united Turkish fleets, the pirates take ad vantage of (he opportunity to recom, 'mance their proceedings. We are assured, how. ewer, Sir, that the Greek Government will take the most active measures to indemnify nil those who have suffered by the plunder of the Dutch ship." • ,tonz, MA twit '23.—To-day, and this whole meek, the First Chaniher of the States Geueral leas been assembletL It is said that it has passed the law for : the loan of twenty millions for the use of the colonies; and the whole coda of com merce, except-those chapters which were rejected by the Secend Chamber, and which have been adopted in an amended form.— We , may expect the close of the sessions about Saturday, on ac count of the Easter holidays., Tuesday next.

A biLt, TO FACILITATE ARRANGEMENTS BETWEEN DEBTOR. AND, CREDITOR, (A amended b,V the CoMMittee.) Sess. 7. Geo. IV. k'nen this Bill was first brought into' the fouse, we were disposed to view it as a very sea- suitable and very beneficial measure, and caldu lated, in very many instances, to save the great expence of issuing - au: commission of bank 'ruptcy, and the heavy costs attending the ~working of it by the Solicitor. In its ori ginal form, it consisted only of three short clauses, but since its comrnittnent thesehave in- creased to thirteen ; and as it seems to us, not 'only without '.eonferri:lg any addititional advan tage, but letratting from the value of the three original sections, and that too 'in such a degree as greatly to hamper the beneficial operation of he law, and render it almost nugatory and abor ive. l'be object of this Bill is to make deeds by which ts. trailer (within the meaning o the Bankrupt Laws) conveys property to trustees for the benefit of his creditors, binding not only on the creditors, who sign the deed but on those who do not, provided it shalt lie signed by, seven-eighths in number, and who are creditors to the amount of seven- eighths or the debts due and owing by the trader ; and also to declare such a conveyance not an act of bankruptcy within the 6th Geo. IV., c. 16 These provisions occupied the first two classes the original Bill, and the third was employed in providing against useless litigation, on points in volving questiOns tOr to , whether the deed had been in the outset duly executed. With the exception of a clause fur declaring ,invalid all commissions of bankrupt founded outlets of bank ruptcy committed before the deed was signed, we confess the Bill appeared to us to require no additional power, and such a section having been'supplied in the Committee, we must he al lowed to express out., regret Oita it was also deem ed necessary to make provnion for the ri , moval of the original trusteesi:and the appointment of new ones, and still more so, that an Ipplication to the Chancellor was authoried under any circurn 7 tatters, end in any event. Nevertheless, seven out' of the ten clans;es added by the Committee are for the' first of these purposes, and one-eighth is giVen in order to confer on the Chancellor the power of Interference on petition either from the trader himself, or any one or more of'his' creditors. The excellent principle on which this Bill is founded is greatly restricted in its operation, by . requiring the assent of seven-eightlet of the 'credi tors at all, nor is a great deal or penetration ne ,,,ssary t o discov e r that appendi ng t o thi s pro vision, the condition that the seven-eighths in number shall be' seven-eighths in value, also, throws around a rra ngentepts,bet Weeit debtors and creditors mukr thii Act, a most tremendous difficulty in the very outset. At cotnmon law such deeds as these are lawful, and binding upon all who sign ; and in the present instance they would still remain so, notwithstanding seveil. eighths io numberand value of the creditors should not assent, so that the present Act hats not greatly extended the operation of the common 'law. 'rids difficulty, however, might have been overcome, for once surmounted, the creditors would find they had no alternative but to make the best . of the - effects set over to trustees, for their benefit, and settle and arrange the accounts of the trailer with all convenient speed. But what an engine is afforded by these additional clauses ? A re. fractory creditor who finds himself, contrary to his wishes, compelled to assent to the deed, and take a dividend under it, may procure the removal of a trustee and the nornination of a new one, and by these means throw obstacles into the way of any adjustment of the affairs of the trader, and finally harass him With a proceeding in Chancery, one of the very objects for the prevention..of which the bill was intended. We contend, not only that 'the power to re. move and nominate new . trustees is useless, but that given to the Chancellor is equally 10. The first where necessary may be secured by properstipolations in the deed itself; and as to the second, the courts of eqnity would of themselve assume a jurisdiction over the trustees by the .or (Unary rules of equity ; and . which they would not fail to exercise, when the subject was duly brought before them. This new authority of proceeding by petition, is cumulative upon this original inherent power, and appears to us a gra tuitous of tendered for the acceptance . of the Court of Chancery, but Without design and without advantage. If, e that the interfe. e l r t however, e a v e n r e , c i e t s s a i is y c o e n p s i i i tl e e n r d e e d g re cce of any Court of Equity in a n ex t r aordinary suggest would that the epoicatiotuo s t i b l i o s ul ß d il b l, e 7 to e the Court of Commissioners of Appeal in Bank rupt cases, proposed to be erected by the Chan- JIAMI,ZUROII AND FLANDERS MAILS.

During the last sixteen years, lte hadcarefully preserved, in his bed-room, the coffin in which he desired to be interred. .It was beautifully fiiiished, tint he bki succeeded in giving n gloss - to it far so 'polar to the most polished furniture. About ft month before his demise, he completed tt similar habitation fur the reception of the remains of his better half. cery Commissioners. This Court could grant as effectual relief as the Court of Chancery, and we think with double the speed, and a fourth of the cost, two points of no' small Importance both to the Trader and Creditors in cases of insolvency. Greatly restricted as this bill appears to be, we do not nos anticipate any very extensive good from it. Its sphere of action _is far too confined,and its power too greatly limited to hold out much pro .. spot of benefit to the trading public. Applica tions to the Chancellor would in nine out of every ten cases be made,and thus a trader would find himself in rather a worse situation than if he had at first submitted to the issuing of a commis sion, and been declared a bankrupt 64 in due course of law." Litigation would be followed by law expellees, and if the trader Should succeed, he must beg the favour of his solicitor to sign the composition deed ; and if defeated, he would then be compelled to resort to the Bankrupt Law for protection with an estate greatly reduced in value, and a dividend its the perspective but so far removed as to be' very near the vanishing point, and diminished in proportion to the dis tance. What trader would, under such appre hensions, resort to this bill, when the , Bankrupt Laws ensure him a better termination, and with less trouble, although more cost, —a cost, however, which makes but little difference to him, as it is paid out of his estate, and only 'goes to diminish the amount of dividend.the creditors would other wise receive. - Howsoever inoperative this Bill may he, it is desirable the promoter of it (Mr. Bright, we think), sh'ould attend to the framing of its clauses, and see to the manner in which they are likely to affect the existing law. In the very preamble:there is whative. should deem a great fault; viz. a :recital,that .composition deeds have been, or may be, deemed Acts of Bankruptcy, —as if there was the smallest doubt on thu point. 'We conceive it would have been altogether as well to have recited .the particular clause of the Bankrupt Act (6 G. IV. c. 16, s. 4,) which constituted such in act an act of bankruptcy. Be sides this the ten new clauses are all dreadfully framed, and. so very loose and vague are the ,pressions,employed,, that although an idea can he formed of 'the provision intended, no definite operation can 'be' given to it. These are great defects in legislators ; to them we owe the ht.- crease of the,statute book,and the sarcasms ever and anon thrown at the law. They are indt4d. the op probria legum, as hypochondriasis is the .opplobrium medicorum. ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.
